Whitney Houston and the art of melisma
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17039208
The star went out.
And it's for this reason that I tried this news relationed with this genius woman called Whitney Houston, that leaves us with only forty-eight years (like the incredible Amy Winehouse with twenty years I think...)
It's sad to know that this voices will leave us with no more words and no more songs.
Voices that make us cry, smile and even be strong or weak.
One of these voices was from Whitney, and we will remember through what she left to us.
So, seeing this news, I could not help choosing it.
This news talk about the great art that she had to pronounce that "I" of her famous song I will Always Love You.
This art is called Melisma and according to the news, was already used for others singers before her (but she with her magnificient voice stood out among all the others and she did popularize this technique)
The news talk about this style, but this is just the excuse to give homage to this queen of Pop.
Unique for her voice.
We always love you, Whitney....
